Kickstarter is probably known to most; it's a funding platform for creative projects. Currently active is funding for the game Torment: Tides of Numenera, which will also be available on Linux! As part of this you can also get inXile entertainment's already funded game Wasteland 2 which is currently in development. Details here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/inx ... f-numenera

If you enjoyed RPGs like Planescape: Torment or Fallout then like me you will probably get excited for both of these games Of course you can wait till the games are released to buy them (October 2013 for Wasteland 2, December 2014 for Torment: Tides of Numenera), but the money you pledge now will be used to expand Torment: Tides of Numenera with a deeper story and longer gameplay. You can pledge till April 5th.

Unfortunately, due to a lot of "stretch goals" which have been successfully met (and that's great!), the game will be larger than initially planned and will be released later than Dec 2014:

Many of you have asked if the unexpected support we have received will require us to push back the release date. While we do not yet know what our final development budget will be, we do know that we’ll need a few months past the December 2014 launch date we first proposed at $900,000. (We’ll provide more details about our schedule after we have time to complete our planning following the Kickstarter.)
